A fantastic surprise awaited me as I returned to the corporate offices
of Unicron.com this afternoon, a double DVD set from the PR Dept. of
CartoonNetwork! Check out sweet new publicity stills, screen captures
and written character bio/description of:

OPTIMUS PRIME robot mode, in truck mode, and Promo:(Voiced by David Kaye) A young (by Cybertronian standards) commander of a ragtag and largely
inexperienced group of misfit AUTOBOTS.
He’s a born leader, a natural tactician, a dedicated never-say-die
fighter and a master of improvisation in the face of adversity. Unassuming, humble, friendly and cheerful,
Prime comes across as “The Bot Next Door.”
He takes his mission and his men with the utmost seriousness, but is still
able to relate to them as a regular guy. He’s not the kind of leader who needs to bark
orders to command respect (besides, he’s got RATCHET to do that for him).

Robot Mode Power: OPTIMUS PRIME has the ability to change any part of
his robotic body into a tool or gadget. His
arsenal includes a jet-powered axe, grappler and fire extinguisher.

Vehicle Mode Appearance: Fire Truck.

BUMBLEBEE in robot mod and auto mode: (Voiced
by Bumper Robinson) The “kid” of the team, easily the youngest and the
least mature of the AUTOBOTS. He’s over-eager, over-confident and
constantly overcompensating for his diminutive stature. Fast-talking,
wise-cracking, scheming and
hyperactive, BUMBLEBEE is not nearly as cool as he imagines himself to
be. Then again, nobody could possibly be as cool
as BUMBLEBEE imagines himself to be.
He’s a total showoff, always acting on impulse and rarely considering
the consequences. And he’s always
getting in way over his head, although most things are way over his
head. But
don’t mention that to BUMBLEBEE; he’s very sensitive about his height.

Robot Mode Power: BUMBLEBEE can create electric force “stings,” allowing
him to stun enemies or blast his way through whatever’s in his path. He’s also the fastest of the AUTOBOTS, in
both vehicle and robot mode.

Vehicle Mode Appearance: Compact Police Detective’s Car.

BULKHEAD: (Voiced by Bill Fagerbakke)Every
team needs its “muscle” and BULKHEAD is it.
Designed primarily for demolition, BULKHEAD is a bull in a china shop,
whether he wants to be or not. In
battle, he’s your greatest weapon.
Everywhere else… well, hide the breakables. He’s not overly clumsy, but he’s like a big
overly enthusiastic dog who doesn’t know his own size or strength. BULKHEAD has a natural curiosity about humans
and their culture. He’s especially
interested in art, something that doesn’t exist on Cybertron. On some level the creative urge is an attempt
to compensate for all the destruction—deliberate or inadvertent – that he
causes. Problem is, most of his
“creations” either fall apart, don’t look a thing like what he says they are,
or are just plain ugly. Not that anyone
would ever tell BULKHEAD that to his face.

Robot Mode Power: BULKHEAD is easily the strongest of the AUTOBOTS. That combined with battering ram arms make
him the ultimate “Demolition Bot.”

Rhinox was a genius, and Bulkhead well...Prowl is more of a silent Dinobot.Ratchet is Kup (couldn't think of anyone else)No one is Rattrap

At last some decent pics of BA (who looks very evil), Lugnut (who looks like something out of Ben 10), pre-Earth Megatron (love those two pics), and those humans. Sari looks kinda creepy in that pic. But overall, I can't wait for this series to air.
